These 47 in. Yellow Faux Forsythia flowers & stems are quite realistic but I was quite disappointed that the stems were bent out of shape and took me quite some time to get them to stand up straight by using my steam gun to straighten them out. It would have been better that the stems could be "snapped in" & attached to the top floral arrangement instead of folding them over & bending them out of shape. The Forsythia flowers are very delicate & kept falling off so I needed to re-attach with a bit of glue. Set them in a tall metal antique bronze vase & also placed them on a plant stand (to lift higher) and put them in a corner in my bedroom. They do make a lovely accent piece but it took me quite some time to assemble this arrangement.
